A Set of Six Late 18th Century Bamboo ‘Cockpen’ Armchairs, with Drop in Upholstered Seats

£84000

In the manner of Linnell, c.1770. Closely related in form to the Scottish ‘Cockpen’ chair, the spotted surface and faux bamboo design of these examples lend a freshness to their untouched surfaces. The drop-in seats stripped to calico, with spandrels and gently raking backs.

Extremely similar to a set of ten ‘neat bamboo chairs’ made for William Drake, Shardeloes in 1767.

Provenance:
Wood House, Essex (as pictured, Country Life fig.7)
